The gravitational force between two asteroids is 6. 2 × 108 N. Asteroid Y has three times the mass of asteroid Z. If the distanc

e between the asteroids is 2100 kilometers, what is the mass of asteroid Y? 3. 7 × 1015 kg 1. 1 × 1016 kg 1. 4 × 1031 kg 4. 1 × 1031 kg.

Answer:Let m =  mass of asteroid y.Because asteroid y has three times the mass of asteroid z, the mass of asteroid z is m/3.Given:F = 6.2x10⁸ Nd = 2100 km = 2.1x10⁶ mNote thatG = 6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²)The gravitational force between the asteroids isF = (G*m*(m/3))/d² = (Gm²)/(3d²)orm² = (3Fd²)/G     = [(3*(6.2x10⁸ N)*(2.1x10⁶ m)²]/(6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²))    = 1.229x10³² kg²m = 1.1086x10¹⁶ kg = 1.1x10¹⁶ kg (approx)Answer: 1.1x10¹⁶ kg

A planet orbits a star in an elliptical orbit. At a particular instant the momentum of the planet is
Masja [62]

Answer:

L = m v r (The momentum remains constant)

Explanation:

Even in an ellipsoidal orbit, the law of conservation of angular momentum always apply. When the plant approached the perihelion, the radius of the orbit decreases and the speed of the star increases to conserve the momentum. Similarly, when the planet approaches the aphelion, the speed of the star decreases as the radius increases to conserve the momentum. So, the momentum at a particular instant can be calculated by L = m v r
